† Reported in this PAC’s own disbursement filing; the recipient’s receipt filing hasn’t itemized it yet.
Tracked candidates reported receiving $377,800 from this committee — $97,500 more than its own filings itemize ($280,300), because their receipt filings posted ahead of the committee’s covering report or span more cycles than its loaded filings.
